been killed during the strikes and 8 have been wounded. this is just the 2nd strike that is right into the city center of pharaoh dr. stroy, concurrent out earlier this week. this means that people here are getting more scared and scared as israel hits closer and closer to the city center. and it's not only about hitting the silence of verbs anymore. what are you hearing about classes between has a lot and is rarely troops in the south of the country. we hear that there is heavy pointed in getting on on the ground between his bola and israel is really ami. it has now confirmed that at least 8 of its soldiers have died. it is a little bit would we have expected because while is or the is or a ami has the upper hand when it comes to arrow strikes. has paula is known to be quite strong. 5 during ground come box, and we heard that the organization has done

a few kilometers be on the border. now that being said, this operation is much more difficult and it's very different from the strikes that we have seen in the past, which have been carried out from the distance. this operation is on the ground, it is, and i terrain that is very harsh. it is also very hostile. this is head, follow him tough, which is essentially sworn to resist as ro. um, now military experts have been saying for a while, but this operation will be very dangerous. we've already heard that some 8 id of soldiers have been killed as many others have been wounded. i'm not the same time. we also know that israel is determined to pushes vala back to make sure that they cannot and will not keep firing rockets, northern israel, which they've been doing for the best of pos over the last the entire last year, which has resulted in her tens of thousands of history just having to, to evacuate and leave their homes. the question is just whether the is ready. um

won't be too severe. i'll tell you what. but as you can control mutual, so when there is such an opportunity, williams, everyone can have a look at what the problem is. like, how does that, that want to tell you this on the cross on the sense of we can into a tropical depression as it moves along the islands, west and coast, where the vast majority of taiwan is population lives. a meteorologist coolants movement, strange with one time when these official saying it could be among the slowest moving type, things ever observed. that means as it moves across the islands, there's more time for the type students to bring chaos. to tie one, tens of thousands of troops remain on standby to assist with recovery efforts and sweden the 2024 right livelihood award, which honors courageous change makers has been handed to 4 winters. is a um, ro, founder of a movement. and hebron, which is against legal, is really settlements in the palestinian territories. filipino

active as john carling celebrated for her work defending the rights of indigenous people. about labels for from mozambique honored for her efforts for clement justice. and the 4th winner of this year's award is the british based group forensic architecture which investigates human rights abuses. and here's a closer look at the research organization founded in 2010 by british is really architect ale weisman. this being one, this use of done it's nobel prize for uncovering environmental and human rights violations by visually reconstructing events like political concepts, violence fires, accidents, and abuses. so basically what i'm working on right now is a reconstruction. and one of the consideration as well as this image,

which shows the reconstruction of the car that 6 year old palestinian girl hen brought job was in when she was shot by is really gunfire in january, 1 of their most significant cases was the grandson's, our fire in london, in 2017, which was the deadliest in the u. k. since world war 2, the team explain how would analyze the file spread spreads over the course. we collected several 100 of those images. ready lots of place we were able to synchronize those on the timeline. we were also able to use them to understand the development and we use the process code much attracted in order to understand the movement of the camera. so these dots, let's see here, tracking the motion of the witness would over 100 investigations and 31 countries they have revealed suits about war crimes, environment, the injustices in genocides. it's founder advisements phase. by looking at small

details, one can understand the bigger picture of history. even before winning the ride livelihood award, they had already made a significant impact serving as evidence and major legal cases worldwide. their work has had the injustice for affected communities such as migrant in greece and ukrainians, affected by the russian invasion. next, we have an exclusive interview with the system director of forensic architecture of bob trafford. i begin by congratulating him on winning the award and asked what it means for him and his organization. i really wanted to know this is on the list of people. one was on the some of the leading lights of human rights in the us, 45 years, miss reyes on to be considered among them and along side the 3. fantastic. all right, and we really share this almost today. i would say we assist organizations and eyes . we have partners and friends around the world and we've, i've done this what we saw some of your work in the report. but could you briefly

tell us a little about how you work? how do you select issues to work on? how do you gather information? what's your process? yeah, cool. um, so what am i thinking about the way that we work is that we develop a set of digital research techniques which in turn a huge amount of information. what's available online in open sources in a public domain, into robust evidence. so that might mean that when somebody, someone please, the 1st one, excuse me, this isn't the when somebody stopped by the police process or when a problem falls in a crowded civilian named something that i regret to be split, see, don't a lot of, in the reason yes, um, when the reason why that happens is captured by thousands of different mobile phones, maybe somebody so just before the bomb falls, maybe somebody solves emergency services running into the after all techniques,

a very good ad. turning those fragments information into a robust storage of robust evidence. it's been played i. and then what we want to do is to use the information challenge they plays awfully expensive police that prison stage about how the incident play die and who is responsive. how when we that information is being take it to me. exactly, sir. i didn't mean to interrupt you there, but i think that was where you were and where you were going. how has, in your work, as you just laid it out, made a difference in the world so far. as i said, we want to take a look into the legal spaces and the court reason political process as much as possible cost. and that's why we see on would be presented in the un general assembly near gauge or the human rights, the i, c i, c j. and probably it does a national conference around the world. but we know that the change and justice

responsibility goes on things the early happening go into spaces. so we also take on what in the gallery, exhibitions, kinds of cultural spaces where we feel like we can reach a different audience, much larger audience in new ways. and i'm platform, the voices of the individuals attributes isn't song is uh, width and whom we want to investigate, state bottoms, and violations of the roads. is there one single project that you're most proud of with our credit orders. what are we doing because isn't investigated in companies more than a 100 times in the last decade? i just come back from just on board when we opened an exhibition incidents on june 23rd attacks in honda on the sides of germany. this is the one of the most profound chases. i can say. personally for me now it's, it's, and this what 6 times are ryan germany. and now in this number, which we think is a very important place to tell you, this was and talk about this story. is,

and i've a german c as in boy, v, as in racialized might in some units is i'm, i'm to use a space like a total space like to, to platform the voices of the mothers and fathers lost their children in, in the most of the following way and the suffered continually dyrock the the ignorance and the can like see in the times the, the racism of the german state. the very, very significant for us to give them a way to speak about that story in their experience after what see, i'm ready for you to achieve in the future with your group and maybe also now with this award on the shelf. well, we have to keep doing the way we do anything, keep sharing on site needs with as many new organizations in our seo this we time. no, we have just organizations today in the, in, in athens, in paris,

in ramallah all the time in mexico cities really go around what we want to keep supporting bands of growth, work in that room and the support the right 90. but it was, is incredibly significant enough project. you know, it's hard to think of a busy in science of the human rights field in the last couple of years. and how it recognize attention drawn to it. and it is really nice for us to work, right. it's bob trafford, a forensic architecture, one of the recipients of this years, right livelihood award. great speaking to you and congratulations on the great work . today is durham and unity de 34 years ago, the former german democratic republic communist east germany officially joined the west on the 3rd of october of

1990, the eastern states became part of the federal republic, and berlin was reinstated as the capital city reunification happened less than a year after the fall of the berlin wall in november of 1989. today, unity day is a public holidays here in germany. but even decades after re unification, germany remains politically divided. the right when populist anti immigration alternative for germany or a fee is on the rise, especially in the former east. for 35 years after the fall of the berlin will germany's lodging towards the right, especially in what was once communist east germany. the populace on to immigration a of the party is on the rise the i of the promised his life and freedom implying that germany is not a free country by positioning itself as an add to the peaceful revolution of 1999. the eye of the anglo civil rights activists like frank e,

but he was in the vanguard of those who fought for freedom in east germany. back then as a civil rights activist and the communist dictatorship, he was the lot to be able to live in a democracy that's supposed to be a here. and dodson ha, what we have here in germany, in my view, one of the free societies in the world is the legacy of the peaceful revolution. and above all, that legacy consists of making it possible for 16000000 inhabitants at the time, i believe, to live in freedom do because the self inquired. so did the peaceful revolution. hundreds of thousands of citizens of the communist east. germany took to the streets in 19189. the dictatorship had come to its end, surprisingly without any violence by the security forces. the billing rules. so to today b, i s d use a split slogans from bank fund, but their goal is completely different. they preach nationalism and installation as opposed to democracy and freedom of the city of tombs. steven,

it's up know enough to have been a tom busy. so yes. what do you refers to slogans that we used in 1989. so we developed across the breadth of the population for an edit act as if we still have to complete this revolution that we're living in a certain lack of freedom because we're on the way to a dictatorship become another 2 years old. and that's not the case, and that's why i accuse them of misusing the slogans. an addict up to. when does this my time? i know nothing is to fight and just being governments or forward is it i didn't smoke mist, call 3 dictates off the re unification. gemini seems to be drifting apart again. besides the fall, right? if the, the newly formed the w party, it hasn't changed significant success and regional elections and the ease with policies that us to light between socialism and nationalism. by 35 years ago, it was basic human rights that people are with their lives for the money. so i guessing on this shouldn't be forgotten and everyone uses the freedom they have now,

but they should consider how they use it. let's see a, a freedom also has something to do with responsibility to investment funds for them to, to him. frank, ava knows democracy is hard work. he rouse to oppose any renew division of germany and stand up for freedom. and the w political correspondent, husband joins me in the studio now. and why does be of the end it's messages resume so much in the east of terms? i think the basic um feature is uh that is durham and still today feel somehow left behind have a feeling that they are 2nd class citizens. that the government basically ignores them or is not really listening to the issues. and so as a result, this, this is a feeling that the a, if the plays on a trying to, to kind of give the people the impression that i,

if the is actually the policy that as listening to the issues listening to their concerns. and especially the anti migrant stands such as the manage a platform on which the right thing populace basing that policy. that's something that has a very strong echo in eastern germany. possibly because of a almost 50 years of communist east germany. they were practically no migrants in that country out tool as americans coming into germany also into east germany as they came in the hundreds of thousands, especially 10 years ago. and that's a wave of people coming in 20152016. that was something completely new to people in eastern germany. so the feeling and a sense of being, i guess you could say of a run of people, things being done for migrants. a, according to them that was not being done for them help that they were receiving that to that migrants are receiving that people on the ground, the legacy and not receiving one of these kinds of issues that leads to the

strength of the i s b. but it's not only in the east at their own the rights. right . that is the case. yes. the v is at about 17 percent support across germany. a bunch of it has to say that, you know, the east only makes up about 20 percent of the population and in that part of germany, this is the supporter at the moment. is the most recent polls the most recent, originally elections as our off 50 percent. so a double of that. across the race of germany. we heard about it briefly in the report, but i do want to take a little deeper with you. how are germany's populace parties, instrumental lising, the legacy of the peaceful revolution? the peaceful revolution was a revolution on the streets. one could say a lot of demonstrations, peaceful demonstrations that tens of thousands of people gathering at the time. and the slogan was, we are the people v as in the us folk. and that as a 2nd, that's of the right thing populous,

but also the populace from more the left side as the, as the movement that is just come up. and they are saying, well, the people are not being respected. we, these popular spotty will respect the will of the people. and at the same time that revolution uh, was an expression of distrust of authority, of distrust, of the communist party at the time. and this distress, this feeling of distrust of authority, is also something that these popular display on and is not directed against the current german government. so they are saying this government tool likes to come in this government so many years ago is not playing with open cards. is imposing things from the top and so on. and interestingly, the role of russia plays is also something that plays into this form. i assume the obviously was a vassal stage of the soviet union at the time, completely under the control and in a sense. but that was a policy of friendship towards russia and this policy of friendship. but at the

same time, the kind of fear of russia plays into the hands of populace and all say, we have to do everything to appease russia because it is so dangerous. and so, rather abandon ukraine, we talk a lot about feelings, but objectively speaking i want to know from you what difference is actually do remain between west the east germany to this day. eastern germany is less well off then western germany, this people have a less wealth, the own less property, the dentist pots, the legacy of communist is, show me the time when it was virtually impossible to accumulate property for accumulated wealth for private people. but it's also got to do with the fact that east germany was always in a gray area and area and stores today very sparsely populated industrial centers in germany were always in the west. so western germany is a lot more wealthy and eastern germans are not very well represented at the top of

the german society in leadership, in politics or in society and companies and so on. so there is some difference there at the same time. sure. which amounts of money have been pumped into eastern germany since unification, billions and billions, and in some sense, eastern germany, for instance, in terms of roads, in terms of the renovation of cities. and so it's much better off than waste the germany through the political correspondent, husband, great speaking to you. thank you for coming in and before we say good, by a quick reminder of our top story today is realized carried out new air strikes on bear roads, killing at least 6 people. one air strike hits. an apartment building near the city center comes as is really ground forces in southern lebanon. faddle has the love fighters, lebanese authorities say more than 1000 people have died in 2 weeks of air strikes . that's all from the news for now. but stay with us ego. india is ex,
